Ah, what a relief. I FINALLY found out what the problem was! [cool]
I took a look at the reel, and in small letters it said "lbs/yards: 8/290". So I definitely didn't have too much line on, because the spool has 330 yds of line on it, and I only used 100 or so yards every time I attempted to put on the line. So..That comes to the lb test line. I was using 10!
Well, at least I don't have to beat myself up for not being able to do something that everyone says is easy. I mean, the poster who last responded to me posted like I was an idiot, and that I should use google. Which I understand. It must be extremely easy to do, I just didn't have the right line on.
Well, thanks guys for posting, guess this whole topic was a jumbled mess. I might have to make smaller, multiple topics, that make more sense, to get everything answered.
Happy fishing! I know I will [
